Jackie was the first black to play baseball, at this time it was a white sport. Could you have been him and put up with all the racism and hatred coming your way? The thing about Jackie he was one to never give up. He hated losing and he was dedicated to the game he really loved. With him loving baseball so much, he put his pride aside and put up with all the whites disliking him. Jackie Robinson is probably one of the most important black men until this day. If he did not do what he did would blacks be playing the sport of baseball today?
